A filmmaker with a soft spot for Ronnie Peterson, Gilles Villeneuve, Mika Hakkinen and above all, Tazio Nuvolari and Ayrton Senna, is also a diehard Formula One fan since the age of 4 (mid-90's). An avid researcher of the past of Grand Prix Racing since before it was even named F1, and with a thirst for knowledge of the ins and outs of the actuality of the sport, as well as for the technical aspects that define it, is a member of GPblog since 2023, where he has put his love of racing to good use.
Oliver Oakes is no longer team principal at Alpine F1 Team. The Briton's duties with the Renault owned team will be taken over by Executive Advisor, Flavio Briatore. Internet users have let their opinions be known with regards to the recent breaking news.
Did he quit, or was he fired for fighting for Doohan?
Resigned or fired?

To be honest I kind of like this cut-throat approach from Flavio
